Disk drive configurations
Hot-swapping hard disk drives
64
Up to six hot-swappable UltraSCSI disk drives can be added to the PRIMEPOWER400 Pedestal
Server. Each of the disk drive bays is provided with an ACTIVE LED and a FAULT LED.
The ACTIVE LED lights up (green) when a hard disk drive is operating (reading or writing). The
FAULT LED lights up according to the swapping procedure when hot-swapping a hard disk drive.
Data Destruction
CAUTION
Data may be lost if hot-swapping of hard disk drives is not
performed correctly. Contact the service engineer if a hard disk
drive must be hot-swapped.
IMPORTANT
To utilize the hot-swapping functions of the hard disk drive, use the option software
(SynfinityDISK) to perform mirroring.
Hard disk drives installed on the PRIMEPOWER400 Pedestal Server are hot-swappable. To enable
hot-swapping, use the tools (machine administration) contained in the "Enhanced Support Facility"
to perform hot-swapping while monitoring the state of the ACTIVE and FAULT LEDs. For details
on how to swap hard disk drives, refer to the "Machine Administration Instructions" included with
the "Enhanced Support Facility".
